Crash, Boom, Bang... and another buell bites the dust....

[ff36buell]

thought i would post this here first... was in an accident last night, guy in an infiniti driving towards me took a left hand turn right into my path... claimed he didn't see me.... i tried stopping (wasn't gonna swerve into oncoming traffic...) and ended up laying it down and riding it into the suv rolling off into the road... I am fine other than right femur bruise and a totaled bike, gear did its job... helmet untouched...

[SVRACER01]

did he get a ticket? ins.? anything?

[ff36buell]

spent today sleeping and @ Winchester Hosp.... contacting the insurace tomorrow... no ticket that i can see.... after he said he didn't see me, he said he thought i was speeding.... thats an oops...

[OreoGaborio]

I can tell you the velocity of any given object w/o ever seeing it... I thought I was the only one.

[catch2otwo]

[butcher bergs]

after he said he didn't see me, he said he thought i was speeding.... thats an oops...

Light speed is pretty fast ya know...


Sorry to read this. Hope it goes thru realatively drama-free.

[The Crashing Tomato]

Glad to hear ur OK

did the 5-0 show? Just to tell you that you were going to fast and that's why acci .. de ..nts .... Oh, ... wait a minute your riding a MUELL ...umm Buell ... meh! Ya couldn't have been going THAT fast ... never mind!

I vaguely remember a conversation from Sunday????

Hmmmm, could be an excuse to get a track bike

[imkindafkedup]

ouch man glad to hear your alright considering. I saw the same kind of bike u had on craigslist the other day, a 05 i believe for only like 4000 seemed like a great deal. I'll see if i can find it and post it up

[ff36buell]

yeah, if all goes as planned... i will either pick up an '08 Ss or maaaaybe an '08 1125R....

[johnnybob]

Glad you made it through alright!

The 1125s is looking good, eh?

[The Snowman]

Holy shit, bro! Seems like yesterday we were riding out to Loudon.

Glad you're ok. Bummer on the Buell.

Think Mark will let you borrow his TLR for a while? :

[wookie]

Great to hear you are okay. If you need the rumble and shake of the sportster engine, you can borrow the 883. It was nice to have someone else who appreciated that engine and its oddities, but I can see an upgrade in your future.

[Wishbone]

Good to hear your ok

It sux that you will loose out on the money for ALL those mods, but maybe buy it back from the ins company and have a track bike

Do I smell a Rotax in your future

[DucDave]

.... after he said he didn't see me, he said he thought i was speeding.... thats an oops...

Priceless!!!!

Glad you're OK!

(Good to see you out there too Johnnybob!)

Hey I thought you posted on Badweb First...

Ya know, I could use some new tires! Know where I can get some?

Splurge and buy yourself a 1098....

[OreoGaborio]

Turn it into a track bike

Glad your OK

Kinda tough to do that when the swingarm gets ripped outta the frame

[CMG241]

Don't be a quitter.

Guess I missed that part..

[Wishbone]

Kinda tough to do that when the swingarm gets ripped outta the frame

Ripped clean off????

That must have made a mess considering thats where the oil or fuel is stored!

[Nate Dawg]

Damn Nick...sorry to hear about it. Glad to hear you walked away with minor injury. Sorry to hear about the Buell I know you put a ton of time and enery into it.

[smf]

frig man. good to hear you're ok.
sucks about the buell, that was 1 sweet ride, but it's replaceable (with that 1125r dooo eeeet).

[FireboltEric_MA]

Ripped the swingarm off!!!!

Damned... you are a crazyman Nick!

If you had Nitrous you could have avoided all this ya know.....

[ff36buell]

I will know more about damages tomorrow.... frame was definitely caved in on left side where frame puck "should have" protected... and not just a little dent.... and the swingarm was defintiely not straight with the rest of the bike... i dont know whats next for me.... i really have no clue about the ins & outs of this whole thing... any insurance gurus?
